House Lust: 6 Affordable Waterfront Homes in RI

These humble abodes, all with stellar views, are priced just right in the off-season.

That’s right: In a scorching real estate market, now’s the time to buy property you’ll use in summer (or, for the true waterbirds, all year round). These view-rich properties, from Smithfield to South Kingstown, all boast off-season prices — some with sizeable price drops over the course of the winter.

This three-season Hog Island home, on the market for $150,000, sits a few steps from the community dock. At just over 1,000 square feet, the cottage has two bedrooms and one bath.

The view from the wrap-around porch is stunning. The home saw a steep $79,900 price drop last month, so the sellers are motivated. For more information, contact Ned Murtha at 401-556-0696 or visit cpgri.com.
